ホエールウォッチ 早朝からサンセットまで選べる時間帯!スナック付き&アルコール含むドリンク購入可<ワイキキ発/12/15~4/15>

I was able to see whales and dolphins! 鯨とイルカもみれました!

Reviewed by: すずき

I was able to see a pod of dolphins swimming alongside us for a long time. The whales were quite elusive, but we managed to spot one in the distance after continuing to move the boat. It seems that there are significant differences in sightings depending on the day.

Along with sunscreen, motion sickness medication is essential. When heading out to search for whales, the waves can be quite rough, and it can be pretty scary until you get used to it. There were even children who fell inside the boat. The guide was speaking in English and kept cracking quite a few dad jokes. I recommend this for those who aren't afraid of the ocean's swaying!

イルカの群れも並走し長く見ることができました。
鯨はなかなかあらわれずでしたが、
がんばって船を動かしつづけ最後遠くにですが、見ることができました。
日によって見れる時と見れない時の差がはげしいようです。

日焼け止めとともに、
酔い止めは必須です。鯨をさがし沖にむかいつきすすむときは揺れが激しく、
慣れるまではかなり怖いです。中で転んでいる子供もいました。
ガイドのお兄さんは英語ですが、かなりなオヤジギャグを連発でした。
海の揺れが怖くない!って方にはおすすめです。

ウミガメシュノーケリング ホロカイ・カタマラン号 高確率でウミガメに会えるタートルキャニオンへ!ソフトドリンク&スナック付き<3時間/英語/ワイキキホテル発>

A tour I want to repeat. リピートしたいツアー

Reviewed by: haru36412579

If you're going to Hawaii, I want to meet sea turtles! After comparing various tours and reading many reviews, as well as checking the duration and costs, I found this one to be the best overall and made a reservation. (*Since it's primarily in English, if you're worried about understanding, I think a tour with Japanese-speaking staff would be reassuring.)

As a result, I was able to see about 5-6 sea turtles, there were plenty of fish, and the staff were cheerful and fun, making me glad I chose this tour. I unfortunately got seasick on the way back and couldn't see, but it seemed there were dolphins and whales as well!

As others have mentioned, there were about 30-40 participants on the day, but we were the only Japanese. All the staff were locals, so you won't experience Japanese hospitality or explanations in Japanese, but you can enjoy the local atmosphere and a casual vibe, which I recommend.

On the day, I was lucky to have a local staff member who could speak a little Japanese. When I was scared to let go of the stairs while entering the water, they asked, "Are you scared?" and "Are you okay?" and checked if I wanted to return to the boat. I really wanted to see the sea turtles, so I said, "I'm scared, but I want to go into the water," and they held my hand and swam with me until I got used to it, lending me a float cushion. (At one point, an elderly person had to return to the boat due to fatigue, so I returned the cushion, but by then, I had gotten used to the water and was able to swim on my own!)

I tend to get seasick easily, and it was windy that day, so I took medication beforehand, but I ended up getting seasick on the way back and vomited a couple of times. There was a restroom, so I managed to be okay, but if you're prone to seasickness, be cautious depending on the weather that day. (By the way, the restroom was basic, and you couldn't flush paper; you had to pump it yourself to flush.)

It was my first snorkeling experience, and I was anxious since I can't swim well, but I was moved to see the sea turtles. I'm really glad I participated in this tour. I'm grateful to the wonderful staff.

ハワイに行くならウミガメに会いたい!といろんなツアーを比較し、口コミをたくさん読み比べ、所要時間や費用なども調べた結果、ここが総合的に1番良さそうで予約しました。(*基本的には英語なので、英語の聞き取りが不安な方は、日本語スタッフのいるツアーが安心かなと思います)

結果、ウミガメ5-6匹ほどに会うこともでき、魚も沢山いて、スタッフの方々も陽気で楽しいたちで、このツアーにして良かったなと思いました。
わたしは帰りに船酔いして見れなかったですが、イルカやクジラもいたようでした!

他の方も書いている通り、当日は30-40名と参加者は多かったものの、日本人は自分たちだけでした。
スタッフは全員現地の方なので、日本的なホスピタリティや日本語説明は求められないですが、現地感を味わえ、カジュアルな雰囲気を楽しめるのでおすすめです。

当日は運良く日本語を少し話せる現地のスタッフがいました。海に入る時にこわくて階段から手を離せないでいると「こわい?」「大丈夫?」など声かけしてくれて、「船戻りたい?」など確認してくれました。私はどうしてもウミガメを見たかったので「こわいけど海には行きたい」と無茶を言ったところ、慣れるまで手をつないで一緒に泳いでくれて、浮きクッションを貸してくれました。(途中で高齢の方が体力的に厳しくなって船に戻るため、そのクッションはお返ししましたが、その頃には海にも慣れて1人で泳げるようになっていました!)

船酔いしやすい体質で、当日は風が強かったので、事前に薬を飲んでいましたが、帰りに船酔いを起こし2回ほど吐きました。トイレがあったのでなんとか大丈夫でしたが、船酔いする方は当日の天候次第では要注意です。(ちなみにトイレは簡易的なもので、紙は流せない&自分でポンプを上げ下げして流すトイレでした)

初シュノーケリングで、ほぼ泳げないので不安でしたが、ウミガメをみれて感動しました。ほんとにこのツアーに参加して良かったです。素敵なスタッフの方に感謝です。

On the evening of the day I arrived in Hawaii, I participated in a sunset catamaran tour. As soon as we headed out to sea, a rainbow appeared over Diamond Head, and I was blessed with the incredible view of Waikiki and the rainbow from the ocean. The sunset was also amazing, and seeing Waikiki from the sea became one of my best memories. It's an activity I would love to participate in again.

The scenery and atmosphere were fantastic. The Mai Tai was very delicious and since it was all-you-can-drink, I had quite a few. Everyone was cheerful and having a great time. When boarding, you enter the water a little, so shorter clothes might be better. Many people wore shorts. It felt a bit chilly, so I think it's good to have something to throw on. It was truly a wonderful time. I plan to use this again.

What a wonderful evening!

The Friday sunset and firework cruise by Three Tiki Sailing was outstanding. The crew was fabulous and even took us to see some whales that were close by. There were plenty of great seats and lots of great picture opportunities. The crew was more than happy to take several selfies of my wife and I. I would highly recommend this tour.

Whale watching cruise ホエールウォッチングクルーズ

Reviewed by: ルー

There were only two of us participating from Japan. Everything was explained in fast-paced English, which I couldn't understand at all, but that was expected, so it wasn't a problem. I was satisfied to see the whale's tail from a distance a few times, which was also within my expectations. However, when snacks were being distributed, they didn't even acknowledge us, and when we were getting off, they kept looking at our hands, probably checking if we would leave a tip? I got off the boat feeling disappointed.

日本人の参加は私達2人だけでした。説明など全て早口の英語で全くわからなかったけど、想定内の事なので問題なし。クジラも遠くに尻尾が見える程度でこれも想定内でしたので、何度か見る事ができたので満足でした。ただ、スナックを配ばる際、私達2人には声もかけてもらえず、降りる時、ずっと手元を見られていて、チップ入れるか確認してたのかな?残念な思いで下船しました。

It's great that you can set sail from Hilton Hawaiian Village without having to move. 移動せずヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジから出航できてよい。

Reviewed by: めんこい

A disclaimer agreement is sent via email in English beforehand, so all participants need to check it and return it. I used Google Lens to roughly translate it, checked it, and replied, but since it was a boat activity, it was a long document.

Although it was more expensive than other tours, it was nice that we could embark without moving. However, the reception location was hard to find, and the meeting place was also unclear. Although it was supposed to start at 1 PM, we were told it would be from 1 to 8 PM on the day, which made it feel like we were starting off late. (The port call was around 3:30 PM.)

Unfortunately, on the day I participated, we didn’t see any whales or dolphins, just a turtle floating by, and it turned out to be more of a cruise around Diamond and other scenic spots. It seemed like they really tried hard to find something since they are in the business. In such cases, you will receive a reboarding ticket when you disembark. If you wish, you can also make a reservation for the next day on your way back.

I couldn’t ask in detail since I’m not fluent in English, but I was told that the ticket can be used the following year or anytime after. Just let them know over the phone that you have the reboarding ticket to make a reservation. (I believe they also mentioned that you could transfer to other sunset cruises. It seems that if it’s a more expensive tour, there might be a difference in cost.)

The reboarding ticket has the number of participants written on it, and I was told that it cannot be split into individual tickets for two people to use separately. So, it might be better not to set the reboarding for the last day of your trip!

The explanation on the boat right after boarding was, of course, in native-speed English, and the safety instructions were quite long. Since I’m not fluent in English, I didn’t understand it well, which made me a bit cautious about safety.

As for moving around the boat, there are open spaces at the front and back without a roof, seating inside, and some tables. There is a restroom in the starboard lower deck. There’s also a bar counter inside the boat. Free chips and snacks are available on the tables inside. If you sit outside, the staff will come to take your drink orders. Free soft drinks include pineapple, guava, Sprite, Coca-Cola, and water. You can have as many as you want for free, but tips are appreciated.

In the end, we didn’t see any whales, but since you can board again if you don’t see any, it might be nice for those with time to enjoy multiple cruises. By the way, when I asked if there were whales yesterday, they said there were. Personally, I think the afternoon departure, unlike other tours, might increase the chances of seeing them.

The boat rocked quite a bit. It’s dangerous to move around while it’s moving, so it’s best to hold onto the handrails and go slowly. Those who are sensitive might get seasick. The sun was shining brightly, so be careful of sunburn. Since it rocked a lot and I didn’t move around, I couldn’t take many pictures of the boat.

I hope this information is helpful.

(事前に免責事項の同意書が英語のメールで送られてくるので、参加人全員がチェックを入れて戻す必要がありました。グーグルレンズ利用でざっと訳してチェックを入れて返信しましたが、船のアクティビティなので、長い文章でした)
他のツアーより割高だが、移動せずに出航できてよかった。ただし、受付の場所がわかりにくく、集合場所もよくわからず、13時からであるが当日で13-20と言われ、はいはい遅れるのね・・・というスタートでした。(寄港は15:30くらい)

また、仕方ないですが、参加した日は鯨はみられませんでして、イルカもみられず、ちらっと亀が浮いているだけで、ダイヤモンドやその他景色をクルージングしたような形になりました。向こうも商売なので、かなり粘って探してくれたように感じました。
そういう場合は、降りる際に、再乗船できるチケットをいただけます。希望すれば帰りにそのまま翌日の予約もできます。

英語が堪能でないので詳しくは聞けませんでしたが、翌年でもそのあとでも、ずっと使えるよ。電話でその再乗船券を持っていることを伝えて予約してね。とのことでした。(他のサンセットクルーズなどにも振り替えができると説明していたと思われます。より高いツアーであれば差額が必要っぽい)
再乗船のための券が、人数がかかれているものであり、二人別々に使うように一名ずつのチケットに分割することはできないと言われましたので、再利用はその旅行内にできるように、最終日に設定しない方がいいのかもしれません!

乗船した後すぐの船の上での説明は、当然ネイティブスピードの英語での注意事項説明などが、結構長くありまして、英語が堪能でないのでよくわかっておりませんでしたので、安全上ちょっと怪しげだったので気をつけました。

船上の動き方としては、屋根がない前と後ろのスペースと、船内に座れるところ、一部テーブルがあり、船内右舷地下にトイレがあります。船内にバーカウンターもあります。船内のテーブルには無料のチップスなどが置いてあります。外に座っていると、係の方がドリンクのオーダーを取りに来てくれます。無料のソフトドリンクは、パイナップル、グアバ、スプライト、コカコーラ、水などがあります。何杯でも無料ですがチップをちょうだいね。のシステムのようでした。

結果、鯨はみられませんでしたが、みられないとまた船に乗れるので、時間がある方にとっては、何度もクルージングできていいかもしれません。ちなみに昨日は鯨はいたか?と聞いてみたら、いたよー。ということでした。個人的には他のツアーと違っての午後出発なので、時間帯的にみられる可能性が高い低いあるかもなと思ったりしています。

船、結構揺れました。動いている途中の移動は危険なので手すり捕まってゆっくりがよさそうです。弱い人は酔うかもです。日光さんさんとしていて、日焼け危険です。揺れが大きくて移動しなかったので、船の写真はあまりとれませんでした。

以上、参考になれば。

We participated as a family of five (with three elementary school children). The kindness we received was wonderful, and the relaxed view of Diamond Head and Waikiki from the boat was amazing. It was also fun to see dolphins! We only caught a few fish, but we were able to catch fish that can only be seen in Hawaii, which made the kids happy.

家族5人で参加しました。(小学生3人)
とっても親切にしていただいて、のんびり船から見るダイヤモンドヘッドとワイキキは最高でした。
イルカも見れて楽しかったです!
魚は少ししか釣れませんでしたが、ハワイでしか見れない魚が釣れて、子供達も満足でした。

The staff was very kind, and I felt safe on board. I was able to see a beautiful sunset, and I didn't experience any seasickness, which I was worried about. It was fun! The pineapple juice was also delicious. The location is amazing, and I highly recommend it! We even had the chance to dive and swim along the way, making for a truly enjoyable time! Thank you very much.

[Beltora Staff Experience] Amazing luck! I got to see a whale! 【ベルトラスタッフ体験談】強運に感動!クジラに会えました!

When it comes to winter in Hawaii, whale watching is definitely a highlight! I participated in early February 2024.

I took an Uber from my hotel to the meeting point for the first morning tour. During this time of year, it can get a bit cool in the mornings and evenings, so having a light jacket was a good idea. Upon arriving at the meeting point right next to the Prince Hotel, I found many guests from the mainland USA already lined up. (It seemed there were few Asian guests.) After giving my name to a staff member in a PINK SAILS uniform, I completed the check-in process. Once the boat was ready, we were guided to board.

The interior of the boat is spacious, but seats at the front and on the upper deck are taken in the order of boarding. If you hesitate, you might miss out on a good seat, so I recommend getting in line early!

I was a bit anxious about seasickness, but the waves were calm on the day I participated. Since it was a catamaran, there was little rocking, and I could enjoy the pleasant sea breeze. We departed the harbor and moved a little off the coast of Waikiki. The boat stopped near Hilton's beach, and the whale watching began. Fortunately, during my tour, we spotted a mother and calf whale within just a few minutes, coming close enough to see them clearly. We maintained a respectful distance to avoid stressing the whales, allowing us to observe their fins and spouts for a while.

The onboard guide spoke entirely in English, providing detailed explanations about whale behavior, including parenting methods, as well as the direction of where to look for the whales. While good listening skills in English are necessary, there were many interesting stories that were very informative. The guide also indicated the direction of the whales (like 11 o'clock or 3 o'clock), and all the guests from the mainland were looking in the same direction. Even if someone missed the English explanation, they could follow the gaze of the other guests to spot the whales!

However, since the color of the whales' backs can blend in with the ocean, it might be difficult to see them from a distance. If you're prepared, bringing binoculars could help you see better.

After enjoying the whale watching, a pod of dolphins appeared in the distance. While they didn't jump high, they surfaced and showed their fins, and compared to the whales, the dolphins were more playful and adorable, which was a delightful surprise. Just when I thought I was already satisfied with the whales, the excitement continued! A white woman sitting next to me kept exclaiming "Oh my god" in delight, and the little children were also visibly thrilled.

Seeing such precious wildlife off the coast of Waikiki, surrounded by tall buildings, truly showcases the unique beauty of Hawaii's nature. It seems there are days when you might not see anything depending on the wave conditions and the whales' mood, so I feel incredibly grateful for my good fortune.

I'm really glad I participated. Thank you to all the staff!

冬のハワイの風物詩といえば、やっぱりホエールウォッチングですね!2024年2月初旬に参加しました。

朝一番の回、ホテルからUberで集合場所まで移動。この時期のハワイは朝晩少し涼しくなりますので、薄手の上着があって良かったです。プリンスホテル真横の集合場所に到着すると、既にたくさんの米国本土のお客様が並んでいました。(アジア系のゲストは少ない様子でした。)
PINK SAILSさんの制服を着たスタッフさんに名前を伝えればチェックイン完了です。船の準備が整ったところで乗船の案内をいただきました。
船内は広々していますが、前の席や上のデッキ等は乗船した順で取られていきます。遠慮していると良い席に座れなくなりますので、早めに列に並んでおくのがお勧めです。!

船酔いしないか少しヒヤヒヤしていましたが、私が参加した日は波も穏やか。カタマラン船なので船の揺れも少なく、気持ち良い潮風を感じることもできました。港を出発しワイキキ沖を少し進みます。ヒルトンのビーチが見える辺りで船が止まり、クジラ探しがスタート。私の参加回は強運なことに数分の創作でクジラの親子が見つかり、ギリギリ見えるくらいの距離まで接近してくれました。親子のストレスにならないようにボートとクジラの距離を保ちながら、しばらくクジラの背びれや潮吹きの様子を見ることができました。

船内のガイドは全て英語ですが、クジラの見える方向に加えて子育ての仕方などもクジラの生態も丁寧に説明してくれます。英語のリスニング力が必要ですが、興味深い話も多く、大変参考になりました。
またクジラが見える場所については、何時の方向(11時の方向、3時の方向等)で教えてくれますし、一緒に乗っているアメリカ本土のお客さんが全員同じ方向を向いてくれます。英語ガイドを聞き逃した人も、周りのお客さんに合わせて視線を向ければ、クジラの姿に気がつくはず…です!

なお、クジラの背中と海の色が似ているため、なかなか遠くからは見えづらい場合もあると思います。準備ができる方は望遠鏡などを持っていくとよく見えるかもしれません。

一通りクジラウォッチングを楽しんだ後、遠くにイルカの群れが現れてました。大きなジャンプこそなかったですが、鼻を出してくれたり、背びれを見せてくれたり、クジラに比べてアグレッシブでかわいいイルカたちも見られ感動でした。クジラだけでも大満足だったところに嬉しいサプライズ!横に乗っていた白人女性の方は嬉しさのあまり「Oh my god」と言い続け、小さなお子さんたちも大喜びの様子でした。

ビルが立ち並ぶワイキキ沖でこんなに貴重な野生動物が見られるなんて、ハワイの大自然は唯一無二ですね。
波の状況やクジラの気分によっては見られない日もあるようなので、自身の強運には驚きと感謝ばかり。

参加でき本当に良かったです。スタッフの皆様ありがとうございました!

  • かわいいピンク色のボートで出発します。

  • 朝のダイヤモンドヘッドもきれいですね

  • イルカの群れにも遭遇
